Good point. I find that I’m working harder now that I’m using AI because the opportunities are endless

And I imagine you're working harder on the more meaningful problems that deserve your attention instead of the tedious tasks that used to distract you.

I think it's just the beginning - we're going to see a lot more of these postings coming out, and not just from us.

Yeah, hopefully it means you wouldn't have been working at 2 am! But work is limitless... so maybe it just means you would have been doing something more interesting at 2am.

seems like new job just dropped crazy that one of the most valuable jobs of the next few years might be one that basically didn't exist 2 years ago

This resonates with me. I've been working on engineering automations across several businesses. Technology has improved so much over the last year th at I've finally hit a stride in both my comfort level in doing so and the results achieved. 🦾

Jake, at your customers, do Automation Engineers usually report into IT or into the business teams they build for? How does that look?

great question and I don't have one answer for this. I'm seeing it mostly sit with IT but this could change.

Yes! We have to look hard at how AI will change the workforce and then upskill talent so that they can embrace the opportunity.

in my opinion, i think the hard problem is shifting from can we automate this?" to "should we automate this, where does it fit, and how do we make it actually work inside the company? That kind of judgment is probably going to become more valuable as the tools get easier.

I agree. And that's the type of nuance an automation engineer needs to be able to discover.

Hey Jake, I am 20 years old and I’ve been doing this for about the last 6 months at a background check company. Your breakdown is correct. Understanding systems and processes is key. Let me know if you are hiring.
